Newbie got my wife to convert!

[Jaybyrd]

I have been at this great new hobby/art for about 2 months now and things are going great, thanks to you all, so I decided to buy my wife a DE razor setup. She has used it several times now and loves it. I "interviewed her" and the feedback was: "it's so much better than the other razors I've used", "it was a lot easier to remove the hair with just one blade", "there was no irritation or issues" and finally "yes, I will continue using it from now on". She even kept it in the stand on the sink - just like I have mine on the opposite side. I am so glad it worked out for her as well as me - I just hope she doesn't find my new stash of wet shaving supplies that I just starting building, she already said the other day "wow that Castle Forbes smells so good"...haha (Castle Forbes was a PIF from a B&B member!)

This is the razor I got her (stock image but same exact thing):

Welcome aboard! And congratulations on getting your lady to move to ‘traditional’ wet shaving.

That is really cool! See now you can talk brushes, soaps, blades, razors......... with your wife. That is awesome.... I am not sure mine would go for it though although I was able to convert her to a fountain pen user so maybe there is hope..

I did something similar. I "accidentally" bought a starburst lady gilette in blue and said hey you wanna try this before i try to sell it? She still uses it several years later lol
